Hasn't voted | As of summer 2007, the 'main' road (which branches north from the Edith Peak road, and ends up at the Trail #707 trailhead) was in pretty rough shape for the last few miles (lots of unchecked erosion and brush overgrowth). The trail itself was also in poor shape due to uncleared deadfall. Also, the signs along the road and at the trailhead had been removed. Anyone know if the road and trail were repaired later in 2007? If not, are they scheduled for repair, or is the USFS abandoning that trail in favor of the Reservation Divide?
If conditions in 2008 are anything like they were in 2007, hikers would be advised to avoid Trail #707, unless you've got a 4WD (that you don't mind alder-buffing the crap out of), and you enjoy climbing over deadfall.
